Manual Y-axis Spinal Decompression

Manual Y-axis Spinal Decompression

Your chiropractor for manual Y-axis spinal decompression in Erlangen

Dr. Zahra is certified in performing a highly specialized, non-surgical procedure known as the Manual Y-axis Spinal Decompression. This special treatment is particularly beneficial for patients with mild herniated discs, bulging discs and spinal subluxations.

Manual Y-axis Spinal Decompression is a non-surgical chiropractic treatment that aims to gently support the spine and relieve pressure from a herniated disc and pinched nerves. This relief of the spinal structures reduces inflammation of the nerves and promotes healthy blood circulation and the supply of nutrients to the intervertebral discs. This can relieve pain and improve the mobility of the spine. For many patients, this procedure has made invasive interventions such as operations, injections and the use of painkillers superfluous.

Before a patient is considered for this treatment, they must undergo a thorough examination by Dr. Zahra, which includes the following:

– A detailed evaluation of the medical history

– Neurological and orthopaedic diagnostic examinations

– Computerized mechanical decompression done on the Spine

– Further diagnostic tests, if necessary

After the assessment, it will be determined if the Manual Y-axis Spinal Decompression would be beneficial for the patient. The well-being and safety of our patients will be prioritized, and the decision to proceed with this specialized treatment is made on a case-by-case basis.
